What is the difference between Engineering Mechanics and Strength of Materials?

This type of questions will be asked in the interview point of view and the answer for this question is well explained in the next paragraph.In this article,I am going to explain about the difference between Engineering Mechanics and Strength of Materials in a detailed manner.

What is the difference between Engineering Mechanics and Strength of Materials

Difference:

Engineering Mechanics deals with RIGID Bodies where as Strength of materials deals with Deformable bodies.

Rigid Body in the sense a body which cannot be deformed by the application of external force also called as Rigid body.It is also called as a real body.

The video illustrates the difference between Engineering Mechanics and Strength of Materials which is shown below.
